Intro
Verse 1
I'm Just Trying To Be A Father
Raise A Daughter And A Son
Be A Lover To Their Mother
Everything To Everyone
Up And At Them Bright And Early
I'm All Business In My Suit
Yeah, I'm Dressed Up For Success
From My Head Down To My Boots
Verse 2
I Don't Do It For The Money There's Still Bills That I Can't Pay
I Don't Do It For The Glory, I Just Do It Anyway
Providing For Our Future's My Responsibility
Yeah I'm Real Good Under Pressure, Being All That I Can Be
And I Can't Call In Sick On Mondays
When The Weekends Been To Strong
I Just Work Straight Through The Holidays
And Sometimes All Night Long
You Can Bet That I Stand Ready When The Wolf Growls At The Door
Hey, I'm Solid, Hey I'm Steady, Hey I'm True Down To The Core
And I Always Do My Duty, No Matter What The Price
I've Counted Up The Cost, I Know The Sacrifice
Oh, And I Don't Want To Die For You
But If Dying's Asked Of Me
I'll Bear That Cross With Honor
'Cause Freedom Don't Come Free
Chorus
I'm An American Soldier, An American
Beside My Brothers And My Sisters, I Will Proudly Take A Stand
When Liberty's In Jeopardy, I Will Always Do What's Right
I'm Out Here On The Front Lines, So Sleep In Peace Tonight
An American Soldier, I'm An American Soldier
Interlude
Chorus
Yeah, An American Soldier, An American
Beside My Brothers And My Sisters, I Will Proudly Take A Stand
When Liberty's In Jeopardy, I Will Always Do What's Right
I'm Out Here On The Front Lines, So Sleep In Peace Tonight
An American Soldier, I'm An American
An American
An American
